36.1571° S, 68.0088° W · cell 14HJB
- Highest horizon point
- Piazzi: 4.6° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 166°.
- Farthest visible point
- 70.1 km away at azimuth 285°, 1.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,923 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 14.4° under it at azimuth 103°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:49 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
